Abstract

Se proporciona un modulo lector automático de medidor que está adaptado para ser retroadaptado o instalado en un medidor nuevo o existente de companía de servicios publicos. El modulo incluye una plaqueta de circuito impreso en la que está montada circuitería de a bordo y equipos de deteccion configurados para detectar consumo de servicio medido por el medidor de la companía de servicios publicos. Un dispositivo de transmision acoplado operativamente a la plaqueta de circuito impreso está configurada para transmitir datos indicativos del consumo de servicio. La plaqueta de circuito impreso está configurada para montaje dentro de una cavidad interna del medidor de la companía de servicios publicos.An automatic meter reader module is provided that is adapted to be retrofitted or installed in a new or existing meter from a utility company. The module includes a printed circuit board in which on-board circuitry and detection equipment configured to detect service consumption measured by the meter of the utility company are mounted. A transmission device operatively coupled to the printed circuit board is configured to transmit data indicative of service consumption. The printed circuit board is configured for mounting inside an internal cavity of the meter of the utility company.
